UFC on FX 3 Results: Johnson comes out victorious in closely contested main event with McCall

For the second straight Friday MMA fans were treated to a night full of live UFC action thanks to this evening’s UFC on FX 3 lineup! The card was headlined by a bout between flyweights Demetrious Johnson-Ian McCall where the winner moved on to face Joseph Benavidez for the right to be named as the division’s first UFC champion.

McCall-Johnson crossed paths this past March in a memorable affair unfortunately marred by a judging mistake preventing a “sudden victory” round. This time around no such controversy surfaced with Johnson doing enough to earn the decision victory.

Other interesting match-ups on the show included Josh Neer-Mike Pyle and Charlie Brenneman-Erick Silva. Silva looked sharp against “The Spaniard”, throwing a variety of strikes until an opportunity allowed him to take Brenneman’s backand sink in the fight-ending Rear-Naked Choke in the opening round. Pyle also put his adversary away in the first five minutes of his respective rumble, knocking Neer out cold in the closing moments of the match-up’s initial frame.
